Abstract: An optical network terminal (ONT) battery backup unit (BBU) battery voltage alert system (BVAS). This alert is provided as a supplement to an audio alarm which sounds when the backup battery is discharging because that alarm may not be heard in sufficient time if the alarm is remotely located relative to its customer, e.g., in the customer's basement or outside. A battery monitoring facility, located in a telecommunication service provider's centralized serving office, or remotely located elsewhere, monitors the voltage of each of a plurality of batteries deployed in customers' premises within the geographical area served by that centralized serving office. That battery monitoring facility receives packets via a communication network from each such customer's premises, each of those packets representing a battery voltage measurement. That battery monitoring facility stores these on-going measurements thereby creating a trending database to point to any potential future battery failures.

Abstract: A system and method in accordance with exemplary embodiments may include detecting a fault associated with a network element that is communicatively coupled to a network. After detecting the fault, the network element may receive a reset signal in response to the fault detection. After receiving the reset signal, the network element may store a new image of an operating system of the network element into memory associated with the network element. After storing the new image, the network element may reboot. During reboot, the method may load the stored new image of the operating system from memory associated with the network element.

Abstract: A system and method for ensuring that a large number of connectors, such as fiber-optic cable-connectors, which are plugged-into connector-receptacles arrayed across a connector-panel, are not intentionally disconnected by an un-authorized user with malicious intent, or accidentally unplugged by an authorized technician who may be trying to manually pull-out a specific connector for testing or other purposes but, inadvertently, could otherwise unplug a neighboring connector because of not being able to clearly see which plug is actually being removed due to the large number of cables that are connected to the panel. The connectors are locked in place by restraining arms which are controlled by solenoids or motors. Each restraining arm can be commanded to release its respective connector, but only when the correct command from a computer is received. The same system and method can be applied to connector-receptacles arrayed on one or both sides of the panel.

Abstract: A system, method, and device for producing, transmitting and displaying images in holographic form of up to three dimensions. Information representative of a three dimensional image can be converted into three-dimensional positional data. The three-dimensional position data can be converted into an electromagnetic field which can be received by nanomachines configured to adjust position in accordance with the electromagnetic field and including mirrored endpoints for reflecting light. The nanomachines can adjust position in three dimensions so that the mirrored endpoints reflect light in a manner that reproduces the three dimensional image in holographic form.

Abstract: A system is provided for connecting an alarm system to a monitoring center through a fiber optic network. The alarm signals may be transmitted through the electrical wiring within a house or other facility through a fiber optic network and the PSTN and/or Internet to the monitoring center. The connection may include a reverse polarity in a pair of ring and tip lines between an interface device of the fiber optic network and a junction element of the alarm system or between the junction element and a controller of the alarm system. The reverse polarity may be created by connecting an end of a ring line into a tip adapter and connecting an end of a tip line into a ring adapter.

Abstract: A network may include fiber optic lines and fiber distribution panels connected by the one or more fiber optic lines. At least one of the fiber distribution panels may include an optical fiber connector designated as a connector that is for emergency use. The network may further include a plurality of optical network terminals located at premises of subscribers to the network.
